According to the present invention, when a de-orbiting satellite, which is one among artificial satellites belonging to a first satellite constellation (101), de-orbits from an orbit of a first orbital altitude band and descends, a second satellite constellation (102) creates an empty orbital region in a second orbital altitude band by expanding the relative angle of any two neighboring orbital planes among a plurality of orbital planes. The de-orbiting satellite passes through the empty orbital region of the second orbital altitude band.
